    Hoody and Rhianon - I'm the opposite, I find it hard to get motivated in the afternoons/evenings. While I dream of lying in bed all day, I have to get up and get the house tidied, breakfast sorted, showered etc all in the morning because then I have the rest of the day to do whatever.

    Went for an hour long walk yesterday. Was intending to run this morning (starting the couch to 5k) but DS had other ideas. Had to take him to enrol in swimming this morning and we are off to mothers group shortly, but I will be going to pilates class tonight. Can't wait. I love love love pilates

    Borrowed an exercise DVD from the library too so going to chuck that on this week when it's too hot to go for a walk outside.

    Haven't weighed myself on my proper scales since last weeks weigh in, but have done a body test on the weigh and according to that I haven't lost any weight this week - oh well, at least I haven't put on anything.

    Have also eaten well I think, no chocolate, no soft drink, more fruit and veg, feeling good already.

    I have taken my favourite skirt out of the wardrobe and hung it up on the door so I can see it all the time. It's my motivation to keep going because I want to fit into that skirt again!!

    Amy do you use cream in it? If so you could use some light evaporated milk that you get in a can. I know that in the Symply Too Good books that is what is used instead of cream.

    Congratulations TK!!

    Well I'm quite sure I haven't lost anything this week, though I'm not surprised after a good loss last week. I've had a bad few days, but not because I gave in, just circumstances. I've made the best choices I could, but not great food. Will see how it goes tomorrow when I jump on the scales.

    All the best ladies!!

    Well done scone! That's great!

    I am stuffed after pilates tonight. Hopefully my weigh in is good to me tomorrow. I feel like I have eaten well this week.

    YAY weigh in day tomo (i cant believe i am excited about getting on the scales) Pretty pleased with myself today i have done 55 mins of aerobic exercise on wii fit. Still dont think i've eaten enough though. Am i the only one that cant seem to eat properly. I am really struggling with breakie and lunch and then am starving by mid arvo which is when i used to graze on junk but now i'm having NO junk. I do try to eat breakie at least but i find i dont have 2 mins to myself whilst running around after my munchkins.

    Well just thought i'd share some of my mini achievments for the last 2 wks and would love to hear everyone elses too.

    before the challenge vs now.

    before 6-8 cups of tea with sugar - now 1-2 cups of white tea, skim milk, no sugar
    before NO water- now a minimum of 1.5L
    before at least 4 soft drinks a day vs now a maximum of 1 pepsi max or coke zero
    before NO exercise- now at least 45 mins every 2nd day
    before NO breakfast or lunch just grazed on junk all day - now at least 2 proper meals and no grazing on junk (still have room for improvement here but this in itself is an achievment for me)

    GL everyone for tomo
